“Here, Ms. Watson. Please try it.” Gaston then added, “It’s one of the rare coffee beans I’ve collected. Please have a try.”

Natasha took a glance at the coffee, picked it up, and took a sip.

As she knew nothing about coffees, she didn’t find it remarkable.

“I know that the person in charge of this project has changed last minute, but I didn’t expect to see a gorgeous lady take over. I am astounded. By the way, please forgive me if I’m a bad host.” Gaston was being extremely polite.

“You’re too kind, Mr. Williams. I’m aware that you have a tight schedule. So, I figure that we should cut to the chase.”

Though Natasha’s response was polite, it was full of determination. Either way, she was neither humble nor arrogant. Gaston gawked at her for a moment and nodded. “That’s a good idea. Since everyone’s here, we can discuss the details together.”

Natasha then took out the documents. “Mr. Williams, after taking over this project in the afternoon, I’ve glanced through the request your company made. I don’t see any issues with them. However, there’s one I think I feel that I should inform you about beforehand. We might have to raise the fee to meet your demands. I have with me here a simple price list produced by Mr. Yondel. Please have a look.”

“So long as your company could perform my request, I don’t mind the fee,” announced Gaston while staring at her intensely. He didn’t seem to have interest in the price list.

She nodded. “If so, I’ll produce a proposal once I return to the office. If you have any other requests, Mr. Williams, you can contact me any time.”

Hearing such, Gaston nodded in reply. “Okay, will do. I have faith in your ability, and I believe you will be able to come up with a proposal that I am satisfied with.”

Actually, the primary purpose of the meeting was to discuss the fee. Hence, Natasha hadn’t expected Gaston to agree so readily. As things were going too smoothly, she couldn’t help but suspect that she was in a drama with an absurd plot.

“Well then, I’ll leave you all to enjoy the meal, Mr. Williams. I’ll head back to prepare the proposal and personally negotiate the terms with you at your company once it’s ready,” informed Natasha.

“Why don’t you stay for a little longer, Ms. Watson?”

“I can’t. I still have family matters which need my attention. I’ll take my leave now.”

Gaston glanced at her and said, “Let’s toast to our great collaboration ahead in advance then.” At the end of his suggestion, he raised his wine glass, wanting to toast to her.

As it didn’t seem proper to decline his suggestion, she took the coffee before her. “I’ll toast with coffee instead then.”

With that, the two clinked their glass.

While watching Natasha empty her glass, the light in Gaston’s eyes became brighter.
